hi i was wondering whether this was possible

[Evan_Morgan]

im very new to php, ive never written any and this is only the 3rd script ive installed. Basically my site is loading really slowly and i am starting to think its a problem in the code, the site is located at http://www.get-profit.net

I think i have singled it out to the index page and not the header or footer (no php in them and they load perfectly on other pages)

Here is the only php code

<?php
import_request_variables("g","");
setcookie("referrerid", $ref); // one year
$pagetitle = 'Welcome';
include ('./_config.php');
include ('./funcs_general.php');
include ('./funcs_db.php');
ConnectDatabase();
?>

If ive done something wrong by posting this here, please tell me

Thanks
Evan

Hi Evan

Your post was very clear. The only possible improvement would be to use the VB code and put [ php ]...[ /php ] around your code and then you'd get the code highlighting.

I suspect that the connect to the database is what's slowing your page down. I can't see what it's doing but try commenting out the ConnectDatabase() line and see if it helps. If it does then atleast you know where to look. If you can isolate the part of the ConnectDatabase function that's slow then post the code.
